Safety Warnings and Instructions: Charging
1. This manual contains important safety and operating instructions.
2. Before using battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary markings on (1)
battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.
3.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, charge only Black & Decker Battery Packs.
Other types of batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage.
4. Do not expose charger to rain or snow.
5. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Black & Decker may result in a risk
of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
6. To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, pull by plug rather than cord when
disconnecting charger.
7. Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper
extension cord could result in a risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
a. Two-wire cords can be used with 2-wire or 3-wire extension cords. Only round
jacketed extension cords should be used, and we recommend that they be listed by
Underwriters Laboratories (U.L.). If the extension is to be used outside, the cord must
be suitable for outdoor use. Any cord marked for outdoor use can also be used for
indoor work. The letters "W" or "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is
suitable for outdoor use.
b. An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for
safety, and to prevent loss of power and overheating. The smaller the gauge number of
the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable; that is, 16 gauge has more capacity
than 18 gauge. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be
sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size.

9. Use only the supplied charger when charging your battery pack. The use of any other
charger could damage the battery pack or create a hazardous condition.
10. Use only one charger when charging.
11. Do not attempt to open the charger or the battery. There are no customer serviceable
parts inside. Return to any authorized Black & Decker service center.
12. DO NOT incinerate the battery even if it is severely damaged or completely worn out.
The batteries can explode in a fire.
13. A small leakage of liquid from the battery cells may occur under extreme usage,
charging or temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the
outer seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin:
a. Wash quickly with soap and water.
b. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
c. If the battery liquid gets in your eyes, flush them with clean water for a minimum of 10
minutes and seek immediate medical attention. MEDICAL NOTE: The liquid is a
25-35% solution of potassium hydroxide.
FS1800PHS tool can accept any of the following 18V slide pack batteries and 18V slide
pack chargers seen in the chart below. Please see the individual charger manuals for all

Important Charging Notes
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when
the air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18°- 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery
pack in an air temperature below +40°F(+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is
important and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch while charging. This is a
normal condition, and does not indicate a problem.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly — (1) Check power at receptacle by
plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a
light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and
battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is approximately
65°F - 75°F (18°- 24°C). (4) If charging problems persist, take or send the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it does not produce sufficient power on jobs
which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedures. You may also charge a partially used pack
whenever you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Black & Decker battery packs that are labeled "NiMH" should only be used with
chargers labeled "NiMH" or "NiCd/NiMH."
6. Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the exposed
charging contacts inside the charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign
materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or
any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from charger cavities. Always
unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity.
Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
7. Do not immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
8. This power unit is intended to be correctly orientated in a vertical or floor mounted position.
Removing & Refitting the Blade
WARNING: Always ensure that the battery is removed from the tool when changing
blades.
Removing the Blade (Figure 1)
Ensure blade has cooled after use. Press and hold the rear of the black blade release
button fully, hold the back of the blade and rotate it 90 degrees in a downward direction.
Slide the blade sideways off the location pin and remove from the saw.
Fitting a Blade (Figure 2, 3)
Place the blade, with the tooth protector fitted, over the location pin. The blade teeth should
be facing the handle. Rotate the blade through 90° until it is fully located in the slot and the
location pin is in the locked position.To ensure the blade is securely fitted try to remove
without pressing the blade release button. Remove the tooth protector, your saw is now
ready for use.
NOTE: If you are unable to fit the blade, check to see if the slot in the location pin is straight
up and down. If it is not, keep the blade release button depressed and use a flat bladed
screwdriver to turn the location pin into the correct position as shown in Figure 3.
Operating Instructions
WARNING: When cutting, hold saw firmly with two hands as shown in Figure 5.
Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Figure 4)
Your saw is equipped with a variable speed trigger switch that allows you greater control
over start of cut, rate of cut and breakthrough of cut.
To switch your saw on, slide lock-off button (1) and squeeze the on/off variable speed
trigger switch (2). To switch off, release the trigger, the unit will automatically lock-off.
Cutting With Tool (Figure 5)
Hold tool with two hands as shown in Figure 5. To obtain the best results from your saw,
use the same backward and forward movement you would employ with a traditional hand
saw. This will enable a quicker cleaner cut.
Cutting Metal
Your saw can be used for cutting light gauge ferrous and non-ferrous metals such as
copper, brass, aluminum, etc. with the specified blade. See recommended materials.
It is advisable when cutting thin sheet to clamp a backing sheet of soft wood or plywood to
the work as this will enable you to obtain a cleaner cut. Both metal and wood backing are
sawn together. Do not force the cutting blade into the metal as this will reduce the life of the

The RBRC™ Seal
The RBRC™ (Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation)
Seal on the nickel-cadmium battery (or battery pack) indicates that the costs to recycle the
battery (or battery pack) at the end of its useful life have already been paid by Black &
Decker. In some areas, it is illegal to place spent nickel-cadmium batteries in the trash or
municipal solid waste stream and the RBRC program provides an environmentally
conscious alternative.
RBRC in cooperation with Black & Decker and other battery users, has established
programs in the United States and Canada to facilitate the collection of spent nickel-
cadmium batteries. Help protect our environment and conserve natural resources by
returning the spent nickel-cadmium battery to an authorized Black & Decker service center
or to your local retailer for
recycling. You may also contact your local recycling center for information on where to drop
off the spent battery, or call 1-800-8-BATTERY.
